Just out of curiosity, when did salt shakers totally go out of style? No matter how you try, the sprinkle method leaves clumps of salt here, bare spots there. The salt shaker, OTOH, dispenses it evenly. Why do we never see chefs using them anymore?
Thank you… Mmmm mm… my favorite ladies with another round valuable recipes. Pardon me but, I’m a sucker for blue eyes
I think Adam Ragusea’s oven fries look better, but these certainly look easier.
WHY do asians have pretty hands
Love the Chops and the fries recipes for a great meal on its own. Can these be converted to Air Fryer recipes at all? Thanks.
Boy she’s bright and cute
I don’t like oven mitts cos it takes away my dexterity. I prefer pot holders.
Those Pork Chops look wonderful and the potatoes are great as well. Thanks. Love the taste test, science and equipment review. Thanks
Warning: the fries recipe is crap. The corn starch only creates a weird coating that’s crispy. Like a thin, chewy, slightly crunchy thing. It’s super weird.
If you want crispy fries, don’t bake them. If you want oven fries, make oven fries but avoid this nonsense. It’s like coating your fries in crispy cellophane 🙄 better off making an actual batter than wasting your time.
I’ve made many recipes from ATK and support them heartily but this was absolute insanity.
Where can you find natural pork? The stores I shop at only have the enhanced.
I love this episode!!💗
Made the oven fries last night and they were awesome.
I can appreciate that you may not want to endorse a specific product while doing recipes as viewed on screen with labels covered, but from my personal experience, I know that Pam cooking spray does a better job than the local grocery store brand; I know that Grey Poupon dijon mustard is better than the Walmart brand. While the variances might seem minor, it can make a big difference in the finished product.
The chops and fries sound and look glorious! Recommendations for cooking both in the air fryer? That’s all I use these days!!!
the part with the kid was cute , I try cooking with my nephew all the time he gets a kick out of it and is getting pretty good .
I really love this show. As someone who didn’t know how to cook before, I’ve learned a lot, from recipes, to the science of cooking, to the best tools for the kitchen! <3
The recipe for potatoes is good, but I recommend using tongs to lift off the foil. You want to keep your fingers away from the steam that gushes out. (Don’t ask me how I know.)
Yo, this is messed up but she looks like the redhead but just the voice is different.
Tried the fry recipe and these truly were the best oven fries I’ve ever had. Not burnt, not “raw/hot”, and not tasteless steamed pieces. The cornstarch is odd but it does work. Here’s a tip too: if you don’t have cornstarch, try egg whites. Gives a similar crisp texture on the outside.
Thank you am learning stuff I did not know about
We’ll be working the pork chops into our quarantine dinner schedule. Stay healthy, stay safe ladies!
Interesting the top 2 chocolates are both "from" San Francisco.
Is Joe okay? Please upload a video of him holding today’s newspaper just to be safe
Absolutely right. The fries are perfectly perfect l had to use russets next time I’ll peel them,but they were fantastic!
I like to think I’m an experienced cook but these demos really help me tweak my technique! Thanks!
I just happened to make some baked or roasted chickpeas last night and when making them I remembered this video and Lan Lam using the corn starch to make the fries crispy and crunchier. I went just by memory and didn’t have the proportions exact but they turned out great. I went back to this video just now to get the right proportions for the corn starch mixture. I am going to try this on other baked or roasted things. I was going to add seasoning to the corn starch mixture but then forgot about it. I think it will be better to add the seasoning in before baking to get everything evenly coated. Than you guys for a wonderful idea.
I like Hershey’s chips the best.
Those fries are AMAZING!!!
The pork chops look great and I have to try making some that way.
I guess Joe didn’t think ‘other duties’ in his job duties would be sinking in cornstarch and water.
I need to try those oven fries.
Okay I get the "two sides" to the non-stick spray…what if I spray it upside down….lol
No more shake n bake in this kitchen 🙏🌹
Just get some mustard and Shake n Bake..done
The taters look tasty. One question: Are you using corn starch, rather than potato starch, because it’s better, or because we all have it in our pantry? The purist in me would want to use potato starch.
My Oven fries are MUCH easier … even less fat and only take 20 minutes and no fussing!!! I have a Calmdo Air Fryer. I cut the Yukon Gold’s and put them in a plastic bag and add 1 tsp of Onion powder, 1/4 tsp paprika or cheyene pepper, 1/2 tsp salt — place them on the wire rack and set for 400 degrees for 20 minutes. DELICIOUS!!! I sprinkle with apple cider vinegar so I ca avoid the sugar in ketchup. My grandkids love them!!!
I don’t have Pam spray, what can I use instead please? I’d like to make the pork chops and fries for supper. This was a great video start to finish thanks so much you groovy people.🙋
I made both for dinner today. I had to use two ovens because they cook at different temperatures, but they both came together beautifully!
I really appreciate ATK, even more now. I’m curious to know what your people think of the air fryers. I know they’re just mini ovens.
I am not a pork eater. I wonder if this could be done with chicken, lamb or beef?
Thinking about it, if the chocolate isn’t as sweet, you can add more sugar to the recipe itself
"One of the things that makes fries taste like fries is the salt."
My dad who always asks for no salt because it distracts him from the potato flavor
"Heresy"
What if salt was added to the corn starch slurry?
It seems that the WS Jr Chef Oven Mitt is on final sale now? no locations within a 200 mile radius of me (SC) have any more in stock, and not available for shipping. Was there a runner up?
I am obsessed with these oven chips! Hands down the best chips I’ve ever made. One tweak I’ve made is to season the corn starch goo, results in a better seasoned chip
My family’s favorite way to eat pork chops!
Gonna try that pork recipe! Love mustard and vinegar, but generally marinate the heck out of chops and braise them unless I’m making weinerschnitzel or a quick fried chop topped with sofrito.
Will probably use thinner chops because I like lots of flavor and don’t need so much meat.
Those fries! How ingenious, I’ve never seen such a technique.
You might try using peanut oil if you have it available. It adds a huge level of flavor to fried/roasted potatoes. And I think mixing in about a teaspoon or so of onion powder to the cornstarch goo would be a huge Improvement in flavor. I love simple and delicious items like this.
By the way, I precook my breadcrumbs for apple crumbles etc too to get that lovely deep brown crust!!
It’s difficult to get Yukon Gold where I live. Would it be bad to use Russet potatoes? Would that work ok?
